Cheap Trick drummer Bun E. Carlos -- whose band will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on Friday night (April 8) by Kid Rock -- will be releasing a solo album, Greetings From Bunezuela!, on June 24.

The 13-song album, arriving on eOne Music, includes 10 cover tracks, such as the Bee Gees’ “Idea,” The Rolling Stones’ "Tell Me" and The Who's "Armenia in the Sky." In fact, first single “Do Something Real” is a cover of a Robert Pollard solo song, and the Guided by Voices vocalist sings on the track.

The album also features such guests as original Cheap Trick vocalist Xeno, Hanson, Alejandro Escovedo, Soul Asylum’s Dave Pirner and Wilco’s John Stirratt.

Cheap Trick is famed for such pop-rock tracks as “I Want You to Want Me,” “Dream Police” and “Surrender,” and spirited covers of classics like Elvis Presley’s “Don’t Be Cruel.” The band first became eligible for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002 but wasn’t nominated until 2015. The event takes place at Brooklyn's Barclays Center on Friday night and will be broadcast this spring on HBO.
